Sometimes, he likes to p r e t e n d

{in your practical family, that's a dirty word}

that there is no James.

That there never was.

And it's crazy, right?

Because J a m e s is the

B

E

S

T

thing that ever happened to him.

{hopeless little fool that you are}

Or at least that's what he used to think.

Now, he isn't so s u r e,

{remember when that boy was your hero?}

because if there was no James,

there could be no James&Lily.

Then maybe, Peter&Lily would have a chance.

And wouldn't that be the

B

E

S

T?

But he knows that won't ever happen.

{you're too late, Wormy}

Because they are perfect together.

There will be no green eyes for h i m,

{not all dreams come true}

no sweet, sweet L i l y.

He won't run his fingers through her pretty red hair.

No, not Peter.

He knows that she deserves the

B

E

S

T,

and he tried soso hard,

{did you really think she could love you?}

but James always wins.

Love spores h a t e,

{they have a baby now, you know}

and he hardly knows that he's slipped.

James&Lily…

well, how are they supposed to know?

They tell him that he's the

B

E

S

T.

He's a true friend.

{the baby reaches for you with chubby hands}

It's just another part he plays.

REBEL

MARUADER

RAT

It's just another game of p r e t e n d.


So, how bad was my first freeverse?
